Whole-Body Donation

Anyone aware of some whole-body donation programs? I am thinking I will eventually want to donate my body to medical education, but I am unsure of where to start researching something like this. Thanks in advance!

Try Googling 'whole body donation programs'. A lot of information comes up.

I actually work for a whole body donation organization called Science Care. Make sure when you're researching whole body donation that are you specifically searching for AATB-accredited organizations, which is through the American Association of Tissue Banks. Whole body donation is such a generous gift and we welcome any questions about how to do it. Please feel free to reply via the forum or visit our website, www.sciencecare.com.

Here is another body (no pun intended - well perhaps it is) who may be pleased to accept your body after death.

LOL! Thanks! I've actually considered the Body Farm as well. So many interesting places to donate your body!
